Synopsis
In some cases library user may want to parse hash (for validation purposes e.g.) and use it in the future for validating passwords.
Solution
rust-argon2
crate already hasDecoded
structure which represents parsed hash anddecode_string
function which parses hash.I propose to make
Decoded
structure public, movedecode_string
function implementation to theFromStr
trait and add functions which can verify passwords byDecoded
structure.Also, I propose to rename
Decoded
structure to theDigest
, because for external userDecoded
name doesn't make sense. ButDigest
name also can be confusing. Maybe there is a better name for it?
